heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

1

Preheat the oven to 450°F.

2

Measure 5 cups of self-rising flour, fluffing it up and leveling it off without packing it.

3

Pour the measured flour into a mixing bowl.

4

Add heavy whipping cream to the flour, mixing gently until combined, but do not overmix.

5

The dough should be sticky, resembling a drop dumpling consistency.

6

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, flour your hands, and pat it out gently.

7

Fold the dough over 5-6 times to create layers, patting it out to about 3/4 to 1 inch thick.

8

Use a 2 and 1/4 inch biscuit cutter, dipped in flour, to cut out biscuits without twisting the cutter.

9

Place the biscuits on a lightly buttered baking sheet, ensuring they are close together for soft edges.

10

Brush the tops of the biscuits with whole fat milk for browning.

11

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

12

If biscuits are thinner, increase the oven temperature to 475-480°F for baking.
